30 PEOPLESPORT RUGBY Akwana targets KPL promotion in 2016 Thursday, October 23, 2014 / PEOPLE DAILY RALLY P29 EUROPA LEAGUE P31 FOOTBALL P32 SPORTS BRIEFS Posta Rangers coach hopeful of promotion to KPL by Timothy Olobulu @KakaTimm KAKAMEGA: Former Sofapaka coach Ezekiel Akwana hopes to raise West Sugar to premier league status in 2016. The side, currently fifth on the National Super League Zone B standings, have no chance of making it into the top tier in 2015, but Akwana eyes a good performance next year and subsequent promotion. “This year we quite don’t have a chance of making it into the premier league but we have already started planning for next season. We want to start well and that means we have to start preparations early,” he said. “My dream is seeing this team play in the premier league and considering the kind of quality we have, 2016 might not be a far-fetched dream.” -TIMOTHY OLOBULU Kibera eye Division One promotion NAIROBI: Kibera Black Stars made a huge stride in their quest to earn promotion to the Football Kenya Federation National Division One league after a deserved 2 - 0 win over Mbotela Kamaliza in the ongoing Nairobi provincial league play-offs yesterday. In another encounter, Forest Service of Kenya settled for a barren draw with Supa Loaf in a balanced match whose outcome seemed a fair result for both sides. Pride of Place, however, goes to Liberty Sports, who produced the highest winning margin in the form of a 6 - 2 annihilation of Intercity. In the county league, Bomas of Kenya shocked Kuwinda FC 2 – 1, with Kenafric recording a similar win over Reformed United. Kakuona’s campaign also suffered a blow after a 1 – 1 draw with Zion Family, while Naivas blanked Dagoretti-based Mutuini Rangers 3 – 1, who they blanked 3-1. The league continues today at various venues in the city. -CHARLES THUKU Tusker, Muhoroni await tie decision NAIROBI: KPL is yet to make a decision on the fate of the abandoned Tusker FC/ Muhoroni game last Sunday. Three days after the match, KPL is yet to receive the match commissioner’s report hence unable to decide on the fate of the match. Centre referee, Andrew Juma, called off the match in the 89th minute after Muhoroni had complained that Tusker were playing with 12 men on the pitch. “The match commissioner is in Mombasa and we are yet to get the match report from him. As soon as we get the report, we will make a decision on the match or if it is beyond us, we will forward the matter to IDCC,” KPL CEO Jack Oguda said. Tusker still maintain innocence on the whole matter, but Muhoroni insist they should be given the points. - TIMOTHY OLOBULU dTreu isclaimer National sevens rugby coach Paul Treu says his strategic approach is to apply the South Africa model where they emphasise on proper science-guided nutrition instead of using food supplements. He has distanced himself from the unfolding doping saga following a report by the anti-doping taskforce whose details were unveiled by Sports Cabinet Secretary Hassan Wario last week.

The supplement at the heart , Evox, was enyan Rugby , before Treu e statement -CAPITAL -CAPITAL Posta Rangers are on the brink of returning to the Kenyan Premier League after two years in the lower division. Currently leading the National Super League Zone A division with 47 points, Rangers are all but assured as they sit eight points above secondplaced Nakumatt with two matches remaining. Although Rangers coach George Maina is optimistic of getting back to the top flight, they are still unsure of the promotion criteria. According to FKF Leagues and Competitions director Doris Petra, the executive committee will sit this week to determine the mode of promotion. “I forwarded my proposal to the Executive Comittee where I proposed winners of each of the two zones gain automatic promotion. However, that is yet to be approved and I am hoping a decision will be reached this week,” said Petra. Maina is, however, ready for any mode of promotion. “We have not been told on the mode of promotion but we are ready for anything, whether a play-off or direct promotion. We have been working hard throughout the season and I believe where we are, speaks volumes of our ambitions,” said Maina. “We have a very good squad, a good blend of youth and experience and if there is any team that deserves to be in the premier league, then it should be us,” he added. Maina was handed the mantle at Rangers after former coach Leonard Saleh was re-deployed, his first stint as head coach having deputised at Tusker for close to a decade and he has handled the job well. “It is a great experience and I am learning everyday. As a coach, you have dreams and it was one of my ambitions to head a team. I am looking forward to better times,” he said. PHOTO: JAMES MAGAYI
